# Notifications and Subscriptions in NEXT

#### Notifications and Subscriptions help you stay informed about changes happening across your sites, timelines, tasks, and agreements—whether you’re automatically assigned or choose to opt in.

**Notifications** are alerts generated when something you are subscribed to changes—either because:

- You were **automatically subscribed** (for example, assigned to a task), or
- You **intentionally opted in** to receive updates

Notifications appear in-app and can optionally be delivered via email.

---

### **Viewing Notifications**

Notifications are accessed from the **bell icon** in the upper-right corner of the application.

- A **numeric badge** on the bell icon shows the number of unread notifications
- Clicking the bell opens a dropdown showing your **8 most recent notifications**

Each notification includes:

- A **title** (e.g., *Timeline Group Status Changed*, *Timeline Task Date Changed*)
- A **short description** of what changed
- The **date and time** the notification was triggered

### **Marking Notifications as Read**

From the notification dropdown, you can:

- Mark an individual notification as read by clicking the **blue dot**
- Mark all notifications as read at once by clicking the **checkmark icon** at the top of the dropdown

Clicking on any notification will take you directly to the **related site or record**.

### **Accessing the ZeusHub**

At the bottom of the notification dropdown, select  
**“Show all Tasks, Notifications and Subscriptions”**

This link takes you to the **ZeusHub**, where deeper notification and subscription management lives.

### **What is the ZeusHub?**

The **ZeusHub** is your centralized workspace for:

- Viewing all tasks assigned to you (as a **Team Member** or **Contact**)
- Viewing your full notification history
- Managing notification **Subscriptions**

### **How Notifications are Generated**

Notifications can be triggered from several areas of the platform, depending on the type.

You will **automatically receive notifications** when:

- You are assigned to a task (as a Team Member or Contact)
- The **task status** changes
- The **estimated completion date** changes

These notifications **cannot be unsubscribed from**, as they are tied directly to your assignment.

### **Subscribing to Global Task Notifications**

If you want notifications for tasks **you are not assigned to**, you can subscribe to them globally.

This is useful when:

- You want to monitor a specific task
- You want updates across **any site** where that task exists

### How to Subscribe

1. Navigate to the **Subscriptions** tab in the ZeusHub
2. Click **“Timeline Task Notification Setup”** at the top of the page
3. In the popup, select:
   
     - **Timeline Template**
     - **Task Name(s)**
     - **Notification Type**

Available notification types:

- When the **estimated date changes**
- When the **task status changes**

> ![](https://help.sitezeus.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-19-2026-07-52-21-1353-PM.png?width=670&height=397&name=image-png-Jan-19-2026-07-52-21-1353-PM.png)

These subscriptions apply **globally** across all sites using that timeline.

### **Subscribing to Task Notifications (Site Specific)**

If you only want notifications for a task on a **specific site** (not globally):

1. Locate the task
2. Click the **three-dot menu** to the left of the task
3. Select **“Set Notifications”**

From there, you can choose:

- When **Estimated Date Changes**
- When **Task Status Changes**
- Notify me **X days before estimated start date**

Once configured, these notifications will automatically appear on the **Subscriptions** page for management.

### **Franchise Agreement Expiration Notifications**

Users with the appropriate permissions can opt into **Franchise Agreement Expiration notifications**.

1. Click the **person icon** in the upper-right corner
2. Navigate to **User Settings**
3. Select one or more of the following options:
   
     - Notify when a franchise agreement **expires**
     - Notify **X days before** expiration
     - Optionally receive notifications **daily** leading up to expiration

### **Email Notifications**

By default, all notifications are delivered **in-app**.

From **User Settings**, users may also opt into **Email Notifications**:

- Email notifications mirror in-app notifications
- Emails are sent to the **email address used to log in**
- Formatting is identical to the in-app alerts

> Opting into email notifications does not affect in-app delivery.
